The list will be uploaded on the official website of the corporation and shared via social media platforms, helping citizens to review and suggest additional vulnerable locations. The decision was announced by MCG chief Pradeep Dahiya during a review meeting with senior officials on Monday.

MCG officials said the move is aimed at enhancing transparency and soliciting community participation to strengthen the city's flood resilience before the onset of heavy rains.

"We want to ensure that no vulnerable area is left out of the monsoon preparedness plan. By sharing the list of hotspots with councillors and RWAs, we are inviting real-time, ground-level inputs from the people who know their neighbourhoods best," said Dahiya. "Our goal is zero waterlogging this monsoon and that will require both administrative readiness and civic collaboration."
